When I quoted you earlier, I was only trying to pass on some knowledge. Your post made it seem like you were expecting to come up off a $450 dollar investment and I responded to that. People tend to think stocks are a get rich quick thing but it's a grind like any other hustle (if not harder). As long as you realize that, you'll be fine. There's a statistic you may have come across that goes "99% of traders lose money". I like to think that statistic (if true) is so high because many "traders" lose money and give up. The people who really make money are the ones that learn from their mistakes and strive to get better. I know a trader who blew up his account twice before he got consistently profitable. Both times, he lost $20-40 grand. However, he was determined to make it and now he puts up numbers I'd kill to have. You never stop learning or getting better.
The more, the better. I would suggest you paper trade (using a brokerage's software to trade fake money) for a while and determine what works best for you. You can get a paper trading account with Thinkorswim (the brokerage I use) for free. You won't make any money trading paper money but you won't lose any.
As for the minimum, I wouldn't start trading with less that $3-5,000.

Best advice I can give is:
Do it ALL legal.
Be patient.
Dont be afraid to take a loss, youll make it back.
Never screw anyone over, dont burn any bridges.
Take care of your loved ones, your bills and your household.

Agree with all that. Especially not being scared of losing a little money. Scared money dont make money.

I might get into this too. A tip for y'all Twitter users. Companies are willing to pay a lot for teaching them to use Twitter.

I've got an ID for a website, sort of like a Fmylife.com site.
Need someone who knows how to create a website, and we can get something popping. I think it has potential.
Someone want to partner? 60/40 you're way?

Hustlers, let's keep this arguing down to a minimum.
Matter of fact, let's eliminate it all together. If someone has a different approach and you don't agree with it, let them learn from their mistakes or earn from their innovation.
Thanks.

Okay let me start it off.
I'm a college student working retail (Target) & I'm trying to buy a car by May along with having over $6k by the end of the year for now...if I can make more (hopefully I can, maybe I won't) that would be good.
I have $1,908.06 in the checking account as of today March 8, 2010

Why do you keep that much money in your checking, get a Money Market or open an Online Savings account and get some interest on that, thats a large sum of dead money that could be getting interest--yeah I know no more than probably $3 a month but still. Unless that money is kept in your account for bills and etc.

Well my only expenses right now is the credit card ($300 due but paying it off little by little to build this small amount of credit) & $30 to pay for the data plan part of my cell phone bill. As for most of this money, it's going to go towards my car, What I really want to do after my car is build up around $2000 more and open a Roth IRA account so I could gain interest over the year and continue to put $2-3k or more into it each year.
